If you need a clear example of how the other political parties attempt to mislead and manipulate the people of Dominica, look no further than the United Workers Party and their so-called “10 Pillar Plan.”
Within that plan, they proudly state, “Introducing National Health Insurance,” as though those few words alone solve our healthcare crisis. But they fail to explain what that means, and more importantly, what it does NOT guarantee.
National Health Insurance, in many countries, refers to a government-organized system that offers some level of healthcare coverage. But the truth is, it can vary widely. It might provide basic or emergency care, while still leaving the poor behind when it comes to medications, specialist treatment, or comprehensive services. Often, the public foots the bill through additional taxes, with private healthcare still operating for those who can afford to pay more.
Time To Deliver On Healthcare: The NEW Dominica Reform Party (DRP) Commitment.
But ask yourself, where are the United Workers Party and Dominica Labour Party specifics? Where are the clear, transparent plans to ensure EVERY Dominican, regardless of income, location, or age, receives the quality care they deserve? We challenge both the United Workers Party and the Dominica Labour Party to present their intentions for improving Dominica’s healthcare system. If they cannot provide detailed, realistic plans to strengthen healthcare for all Dominicans, it is yet another sign that these parties have no real vision and no credible solutions.
At the NEW Dominica Reform Party (DRP), we put the health and well-being of our people first. Our healthcare plan is transparent, detailed, and founded on one simple truth: every Dominican deserves access to quality care. Here’s what we commit to delivering for all:
- Universal Free Quality Healthcare as Healthcare Is Not a Privilege, It Is a Fundamental Right.
- No Privatization Schemes That Leave the Most Vulnerable Behind While the Wealthy Secure Better Care.
- Investment in Better Healthcare Infrastructure by Expanding Services, Especially in Underserved Rural Areas.
- Recruitment, Training, and Retention of Medical Professionals to Meet the Needs of Every Community.
- Affordable Access to Medicines, Diagnostics, and Life-Saving Treatments for All.
- Creating Mobile Health Clinics and Telemedicine Initiatives to Ensure Even the Most Remote Communities Are Not Left Behind.
- Full Integration of Mental Health Services into the Public Healthcare System.
- Transparent Management, Proper Funding, and Strict Accountability Ensuring Public Funds Serve the People, Not Corruption.
- Protection for Families Against Catastrophic Medical Expenses Through True Universal Health Coverage.
- Collaboration With International Partners to Modernize Our Healthcare System, Incorporating Best Practices, New Technologies, and Global Expertise.
The people of Dominica have done their time suffering. For too long, they have endured inadequate healthcare, rising costs, and broken promises. It is more than time; it is past due to reward their patience and resilience with a healthcare system that works for them.
We owe it to you and every Dominican family to deliver real, quality healthcare, not empty slogans or political spin. They deserve a government that sees their struggles, respects their sacrifices, and steps up with solutions that protect their health and dignity.
A Nation That Cares – The Path To Global Leadership.
But this is not just about healthcare. If Dominica wants to be taken seriously on the world stage, if we want to be a player in the global trade market and attract investment, then we must look the part.
A nation that prioritizes the care and well-being of its people, while building strong and modern institutions, earns the trust of investors. Appearance matters, and Dominica’s future depends on demonstrating to the world that we can offer stability, fairness, and opportunity for everyone.
The NEW Dominica Reform Party (DRP) stands for that future, a future where our people are rewarded, our healthcare is strong, and our country rises to its rightful place in the world. Dominica Deserves Better. Dominica Deserves Leadership That Delivers. The NEW Dominica Reform Party (DRP) invites every resident to demand more from the opposing parties, to demand specifics, reject vague promises, and insist on policies that truly uplift our nation.
Healthcare is a right, not a business, and under a NEW Dominica Reform Party (DRP) government, we will deliver on that promise, openly, honestly, and in the best interest of EVERY Dominican.
